2003 Hyundai Accent CRDI review from France
"Really good car I will buy another one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The diesel pressure pump had to be replaced at 20000KM, but it was a known defect and it was covered by the warranty.
General comments?
Really good small car the 3 cylinder 1.5L crdi common rail injection diesel of 80horse power give a lot of life to the car.
In first and second gear you can make the wheels spinning easily, a lot of power.
The fuel consumption is under 5.5liters per 100km in a everyday driving condition.
In 42000KM it just gave me some nice driving and good reliability for one of the cheapest car on the french market 12500 Euros New.
For Europe this diesel motor is really eficient and give a lot of tork at only 1800 RPM.
